We don’t just observe art; we have a relationship with it. Whether it’s music, paintings or movies, the artist does their bit – but it’s the involvement of our own psyche that completes the circle. This is even more true for games, because we don’t sit for 100 hours in front of the Mona Lisa.
Relationships with art change over time. I appreciated animation more when I was a younger man. I appreciate jazz much more today. I find the Mona Lisa alluring or boring depending on what mood I am in.
